That way we would be able to create integration test coverage of 100% while still being able to panic on real hardware, until all messy behaviour is implemented. It's like writing unit-test kind of integration tests which then fail when provisioned :)

Passing tests and then failing when provisioned is still better than just failing when provisioned. At least you know that it should work (and maybe does, on different variations of the hardware).
